Transfer Credit Approval Process
Matriculated students who wish to take courses during summer/winter sessions at institutions other than ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø and apply these courses to their ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø degree may obtain approval from the Office of the Registrar before leaving campus.
Students should submit a completed Transfer Credit Approval Form for review and arrange to have the other institution send an official copy of the final transcript to the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Office of the Registrar. Please Do Not Assume Courses Will Be Transferred.
The following policies apply:
2. A maximum of 16 credits can be earned in a summer: 8 in one session + 8 in a second session (8 credits is the limit for winter term). Sessions 1 and 2 may not overlap more than 10 days.
3. A grade of "C" or better is required for transfer credit. (C- does not meet this requirement.) If courses are taken on a pass/fail basis, information must be provided showing that the policy of the institution concerned is that a pass equals a "C" or better.
4. Faculty advisor and Office of the Registrar approval is required. The chairperson of the appropriate department must also approve courses fulfilling major/minor requirements. If the student wishes to enroll in a course that has no ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø equivalent or wishes to apply a course to an all-College requirement such as lab science or foreign language, the appropriate chairperson's signature is required.
5. Courses taken in disciplines not offered at ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø are evaluated in consultation with department chairpersons. Courses in liberal arts may be granted credit as electives. Courses in technical or professional areas usually are not transferable. Courses already completed at ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø may not be repeated for credit.
6. An official transcript is required before credit can be awarded. It is the student's responsibility to arrange to have one sent from the institution to ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø.
7. Grades earned at the other insitution will appear on the student's ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø transcript, but are not used in the calculation of the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø grade point average.
